Gledhill v Bentley Designs – commercial agents and the mutual duty of trust and confidence
MAB acted for the successful Defendant in this commercial agency case in which HHJ Simon Brown QC gave judgment last week. A transcript of the judgment can be found on BAILII and the case has been widely reported elsewhere, for example in the All England Reports.

I will write a longer post shortly.
